Pocatello, Idaho- Davis Fraker, a junior from Marietta Georgia, and a leader of the Throw1Deep team, added a pair of titles to his resume Saturday at Simplot Games.

Fraker, who won the weight throw earlier in the week, cruised to a victory in the shot put event with a throw of 59’11’’.

“I felt really good this weekend and I was excited to compete,” says Fraker. “It feels great to win both events.”

Fraker wasn’t the only one celebrating. His team, Throw1Deep, won 17 out of a possible 24 medals in the shot put and weight throw events.

“We did what we came to do,” says Fraker about his team’s success in the Simplot Games. “We wanted to take all 24 spots, but were happy with our performance.”
